I accidentally captured this photo while a group of us were playing laser tag for my niece's birthday party.

This picture was taken on a nature walk behind the cabin that we rented last year on vacation. The coolest thing about this creek is that in the summe

My daughter is wearing my hat from when I was a little girl. It is around 20 years old!

Behind The Lens

Location

We had 20 acres behind our house in Bay Minette, AL. I am a self taught photographer and my daughter, Zoie, has been my muse since she was born. My animals also have been used to perfect my passion for Animal & Landscape Photography!

Time

We were playing around in the pasture because it had just got finished raining. My daughter had recently got a new pair of rain boots and wanted to play in the water so I jumped at the chance to practice. This was around 3-4pm. My favorite time to shoot is late afternoon!

Lighting

I love shooting late afternoon because the lighting is absolutely beautiful. I also like to capture light flares at the perfect moment.

Equipment

I just used my Canon 300D. This was my first DSLR. It's an older body but still works great!

Inspiration

This was actually an "oops" photo! I absolutely love getting those "oops" shots because they seem to be the best. My daughter has been in love with horses since she was very little and this horse, Stormy, was her favorite. The relationship they had is beautiful and very magical. Since this photo was taken we lost Stormy and I am so thankful that we will always have these pictures to remember her by.

Editing

This was one of my first pictures so I was still really new to post processing. I used Picasa to edit this picture with a ready made filter.

In my camera bag

I always carry my camera body, at least 2 lenses, extra batteries, filters, and maybe some extra stuff that has made its way into my bag over time.

Feedback

I would say just let your kids and animals run and play together. That is how I've gotten some of my most favorite shots. Just have fun and don't be so serious, especially when kids are involved.
